6 crashes in 30 minutes???
Trying to beat the game and it is pretty much impossible because cut scenes seem to cause crashes the most. This game should have definitely been patched by now. Did devs even test before release?

over 105 hours / 2 play throughs and only 1 crash. Have you even checked the other crash posts with possible fix solutions?

The crashes are random, and they don't affect every system evenly. I played at least 10 hours until I saw my first crash, but today I had two crashes within 30 mins.

We basically have two options: wait for the devs to fix the problem or use fast travel as an easy way to get auto saves. I'm going with the second option but it's really frustrating, but I can sometimes play for hours with no crash. The game auto saves every time a quest progresses, or when you fast travel (you don't need to do a quick save after fast travelling).

Although if you're getting 6 crashes in 30 mins that's unplayable, unless the other ideas to fix the crashing will help, or the devs eventually fix it.

It crashes alot on some systems, I have a 1070 playing on 1080p and I lost count of how many time it crashed, after the last patch crashes occur more frequently.

Interestingly enough it seems to start after the proving (on my first and second playthrough) so you most likely past the refund threshold

Yeah I think it crashed even more often in the last patch. I have had 3 crashes during the same cut scene just now in like 5 minutes of each other.

Had tons of crashes on decent hardware, especially during the cutscenes in the first half of the game or when trying to enter the dlc area.

I haven't seen any answers for fixes on crashes yet, I will do some digging though.

Yeah idk, cut scenes is definitely the trigger for me, at least 90% of the crashes are during cut scenes.

maybe some of the game setting causing the crash ?like shadow etc on ultra.i played at 1080p with TAA on,texture,model quality and AF at ultra while others setting at medium .

I had no crashes, then patch 1.02 was installed. Game crashes randomlly... settings didn´t chance before and after the patch. Hardware: GTX1070, AMD2600X, 32GB RAM, only SSD´s build in, latest Geforce driver. It is really frustrating...

I play on 4K, vsync off, Textures Ultra, Reflections Low, and the rest is on Middle to High, 30-50 FPS depends on Location, Weather, Daytime and NPC´s. Had in 93 Hours just 1 Crash and that was in the Final DLC Mission at the End in the Cutscene.

Machine:
8700K@5GHz
16GB 2800MHZ(oc, normally @ 2666) Ram
RTX2080
Samsung 970Evo NVME SSD


Used "fixes":
Ingame Vsync off but forced in Controlpanel
16x Anisotrope forced in Controlpanel
Preferred Maximum Performance @ Energysetting in Controlpanel



Random stutter Fix:

Added 32GB Pagefile on NVME SSD

Deactivated Fullscreenoptimising and set start as Admin as Default at the Games .exe also deactivated the DPI-Scaling

Yeah, for me, I've played for over 120 hours, and I've only had 1 single crash throughout that entire time (When I decided to put google chrome on in the background - bad idea).

When playing horizon, I typically have discord open, along with about 4 background apps for Razer, logitech etc etc. and have never had a crash with just those open.

For the record I only have 16gb of ram.

I haven't had this PC long and haven't touched my geforce settings. It just seems weird that some people are crashing all the time, and others not at all

I've got about 36 hour so far and had maybe 1 crash up until today. Now I've crashed 4 times in the last 30 minutes, each time during cutscenes.

Latest patch 1.02 broke it on 1070 for me. Crashes every 10-15 minutes. Unplayable.
